Hey guys,

Long story short: FD Ridge with a MSI MPG B850I EDGE TI WIFI & AXP120-X67 CPU cooler.

CPU temps are fine, however, I've been running the M.2 fan at 10% speed due to noise.
This keeps my xHCI temps above 70 degrees in idle, 80+ under load.

I've had some intrusive thoughts on getting a TL-B14015 to replace the stock fan of the AXP120, but it's slightly troublesome to get them in EU.

What do you guys think? Is it stupid? Is it worth the effort? Will it help with my xHCI temps?

Thanks a bunch in advance!
Cheers!

First off, I would like to apologize if this was theorized before by other people. I do not frequent Reddit as often so someone else might've posted this theory before. If that's the case, please leave a link to that thread so I can compare notes. I would appreciate that, or any confirmation or debate of the following theory/interpretation of some of the ER lore.

It starts from something that we already know, that Marika = Radagon, and mentions of a "Gloam-Eyed Queen" where "queen" part might have a deeper meaning.

Let's also take into account some divine concepts that ER was inspired from (the Schism of 1054 = 3 fingers & 2 fingers split) and other concepts such as the holy trinity that might have been used in the game.

Starting from Marika's history, we know that she was a shaman living the life in her peaceful village, which was then raided by the hornsent. These dudes discovered that the shaman flesh had a unique biological property to mold/shape & graft onto other living flesh without being rejected, so they were just using the shamans for jar experiments in order to engineer a new saint that would lead them to whatever glory and illumination.

My take is that witnessing all these unspeakable horrors, Marika developed a second personality, the Gloam-Eyed Queen.

After watching the SOTE trailer again, Marika is shown near the Gates of Divinity, ready to ascend to godhood.

As we know, in order to do that, one needs a consort, and here is the "wild" part: in the same trailer, she is shown to stick her hand into some godskin corpse. What if, the purpose of this act was to "create" Radagon, considering the abilities of shamans that were described above?

After annihilating the hornsent and achieving her ascension goals, as she didn't need the Gloam-Eyed Queen & the godskin gang anymore, she discards GEQ (similar to what Miquella did to St Trina) by using a cover-up story where her shadow just kills Gloam-Eyed Queen, which sounds a bit too easy to do, considering Gloam-Eyed Queen wouldn't be just some old defenseless lady waiting to conveniently meet her own demise.

My theory also extends to one of Marika's offspring in particular: Miquella.

We all know that Miquella and Malenia were twins, however, what if the trinity concept applies to them as well, in the way that they were both cursed since birth, but what if this happened due to the fact that they were born separated instead of a single person?

Later during SOTE we also find out that Miquella has discarded his love, St Trina.

This part is very intriguing, as St Trina translates awfully close to "Holy Trinity" (St = Saint duuuh, but Trina is derived from the latin word "trinus" which means triple, trinity etc.

TLDR: what if Marika=Radagon=Gloam-Eyed Queen & Miquella=Malenia=St Trina, both scenarios depicting a holy trinity concept?
